More Gold for Van Ryn's
Van Ryn's Distillery in Stellenbosch has won a Double Gold for the Van Ryn's Collector's Reserve 20 year old and a Gold for Van Ryn's Distillers Reserve 12 year old at the Michelangelo International Wine & Spirit Awards, which give local and international brands the opportunity to be judged by an international panel of drinks experts. Cape Wine Master Dave Hughes was President of the Brandy Panel.
The jewel in the Van Ryn's crown, the 20 year old, offers an opulent gold colour with a nose of fruit, spice and honey. The palate is a mix of fruitcake, oranges and tropical fruit, with a rich and decadently smooth finish.
The Van Ryn's 12 year old is a five-time winner of Worldwide Best Brandy, and offers a deep golden amber colour, with a nose of ripe and dried fruits and aromatic spices that follow through on the palate to a lingering finish.
These potstill brandies belong to a range that has been rewarded with many international accolades over the years. "The Michelangelo Award for the Van Ryn's 20 year old comes just weeks after it was awarded a Silver Award at the Concours Mondial de Bruxelles, while its younger sibling the Van Ryn's 15 won a Gold Medal at the same international competition. We are proud of the extremely high standard that these brandies continue to uphold and hope that brandy lovers in South Africa get the opportunity to taste these exceptional products," said Van Ryn's Master Distiller Marlene Bester.
